Research Project Name: Marilyn Manson cross stitchTeam: MultimediaBrief Description: this project may just take me 3 months. it's being done on 28 count Monaco Evenweave fabric with 18 colors of floss. this will be the biggest, most detailed cross stitch project I have done so far. I made the pattern with a free converter from a picture I found on the net that I LOVE. I started it on April 30th and I don't even have a solid corner done. it's 28 squares per inch using a single thread. I'm already going crazy, so be prepared to call the men with butterfly nets by the time I'm done.

crazyda79, your shrine is a beautiful tribute to your babies, and a wonderfully touching way to always keep them close to your heart.

pishaw13, your granny square sweater is so fun! I love the colors you used and I'd totally wear that sweater. Your Kilgore Trout hoopla his fantastic, too (and now I have the urge to read a book by Vonnegut!). I also love the newest aprons (I'll have to keep my eyes out for that patriotic fabric ). I'm thinking of heading over to Lexington & Concord (MA) this summer, and it would be so funny to carry around a tote bag made with that fabric.

artsycandice, congrats on another featured project! You rock!

bunny1kenobi, I love your necklace of baubles! I wish I could figure out what to wear so I can carry something like that off without it being overwhelming, because I would love to wear that!

LovelyMiss, your poppet is adorable, and I love her hair and her outfit! I love her eyelashes, too!

Inselaeffchen, I love both of your HP Box items. Fantastic job!

gozer, that meat loaf casserole looks yummy! And, it reminds me that I have some shepherd's pie in the freezer that would make an excellent dinner tonight. I bet that meat loaf casserole would be great for the freezer, too! Although, I think I'd have to use "fresh" potatoes instead of instant

And, I'll be spending some time this weekend with a crochet hook in my hand (I think it'll end up becoming my "best at" project). I've volunteered to make something for the baby of a gal I work with... if they come out well, you'll see them here!
